HCB Chapter 850: Yangzhou City
Chapter 850: Yangzhou City
"you……!?"
When everyone in the Holy Mother Church heard what the Holy Mother Leader said, their faces all turned ugly!
Unwarranted insults may not cause any harm!
The sincere truth is the most hurtful weapon!
The thoughts of everyone in the Virgin Mary Church were all expressed by the Virgin Mary Leader.
How can they be kind?
Everyone looked at each other, their eyes full of anger!
"Haha, what? Am I wrong? If I am wrong, you can refute me!"
When the Virgin Mary saw that no one was talking, she laughed coldly!
"Master, you are not in your right mind right now. We will not argue with you!"
"Don't worry, we will help you recover!"
The Great Protector smiled indifferently.
When the other people in the Holy Mother Church heard the Great Protector's words, their faces instantly froze!
Yes, there is no need for them to argue with the Virgin Mary. They just need to control her!
"Someone, take the leader down to rest!"
"Yes!"
As soon as the Great Protector opened his mouth, two believers immediately came to the side of the Holy Mother Leader.
"Master, please!"
"haha okay."
"I want to see if you can succeed in the end."
The Holy Mother smiled faintly, then left with the two believers.
The great protectors looked at the Holy Mother Leader's leaving back with strange looks in their eyes!
Our Lady Leader is so calm!
It's a bit scary how calm it is!
This situation... is very wrong!
Could it be that the Virgin Mary has any other trump card?
Is it Jiang Chen?
But Jiang Chen is now in the capital of Dajing!
"Alright, everyone, the leader has been taken away, now it's up to us!
The Great Protector said this with a smug look on his face.
Now that the leader of the Virgin Mary Church has been controlled, he is the new leader of the Virgin Mary Church!
This time, he must seize the opportunity!
……
Two days later, General Chu led his army to the gate of Yangzhou!
But when General Chu arrived here, he was shocked!
The situation here is different from what General Chu imagined!
Before, whenever the rebels in Jinling encountered General Chu and his men, they surrendered without a fight!
But the rebels in Yangzhou City are a little different!
Rebels gather on Yangzhou City!
It looks like he's determined to fight them to the end!
"Father, it looks like Yangzhou City is going to put up a desperate resistance!"
"what should we do?"
General Chu's second son, Chu Po, said with a serious expression.
"call!"
General Chu let out a long breath, then said solemnly: "We can't expect all the enemy troops to surrender!"
"We can't avoid the necessary battles!"
When Chu Po heard this, a strong fighting spirit instantly appeared in his eyes!
Since he has decided to fight, Chu Po will definitely not show mercy!
After General Chu made the decision, the Imperial Guards deployed their troops and prepared to attack!
However, Yangzhou City is easy to defend but difficult to attack. If we attack by force, the damage will definitely be considerable!
Therefore, Chu Dajiankang did not act rashly, but began to think about how he should take over Yangzhou City!
However, when General Chu was inspecting the camp, he heard the discussions of his men!
"Isn't it hard to fight Yangzhou City? When Lord Jiang brought us here before, Yangzhou City didn't dare to fight back!"
"That's right! Lord Jiang's status in Jiangnan is really incomparable to that of ordinary people!"
"Lord Jiang is so mighty!"
"Why don't you let Lord Jiang come this time?"
"That's right! If Lord Jiang comes, the people of Jiangnan will definitely not resist!"
……
"Jiang Chen?"
General Chu was surprised when he heard the discussions of the imperial guards.
General Chu had also heard about Jiang Chen's previous defeat of the Eight Wise Kings.
However, General Chu did not expect that Jiang Chen’s prestige among the Imperial Guards was so high!
You know, these imperial guards are the emperor’s personal troops!
However, if Jiang Chen were to lead the troops this time, perhaps... he would really be stronger than him!
"Ugh!"
General Chu sighed helplessly and left.
At the same time, everyone in Yangzhou City has become a soldier!
"Fellow villagers!"
"If you don't want to lose your children and your men, you must fight the court to the end!"
"The imperial court has been recruiting soldiers time and time again, and more and more of our people are dying!"
"If this continues, will there still be men in Dajing?"
"Fellow villagers!"
"We must fight to the end! We cannot surrender!"
"Yes! Fight to the end!"
Under the brainwashing of the Virgin Mary Church, the people in the city are united!
In this situation, even if Jiang Chen came, it would probably not be very effective!
The Great Protector saw that the people in the city were so excited, and noticed that the Dajing army outside the city did not attack directly.
His heart was already filled with pride at this moment!
If he wins this battle, he will be the king of the three counties in the south of the Yangtze River!
Maybe in the future we can rely on the three counties in the south of the Yangtze River and sweep across the entire Dajing!
How could he not be excited?
……
At night, outside the city of Yangzhou, in the military camp of General Chu.
"Father, what are we waiting for? Let's attack!"
"That's right, father! Attack! Those so-called rebels are just some refugees. They are definitely no match for us!"
"General, what are you waiting for?"
Chu Po and the generals under General Chu are all asking for a fight!
They didn't understand why General Chu didn't attack!
When General Chu saw the anxious looks of the crowd, he shook his head.
"Everyone, I know you are anxious, I am anxious too!"
"But, this battle cannot be won just by being anxious!"
"Now, the people in the city are very hostile to the imperial army, and I'm afraid they would rather die than surrender!"
"Even if we attack the city with all our strength, we can capture Yangzhou City through a violent attack."
"But what's the point?"
"Now, we are the only army that can be mobilized in the court. If we suffer more losses in Yangzhou City, what should we do in other places?"
"Besides, the people in Yangzhou City are all Dajing citizens!"
"This……"
When the people of Chu Po heard what General Chu said, their faces became solemn and they dared not speak again.
General Chu is telling the truth.
Now, there are rebellions in various parts of Dajing, and they only have 40,000 troops!
Can't afford the loss!
"But, are we just going to do nothing?"
One general asked unwillingly.
"It's not like I'm doing nothing. I've already decided to rush to the imperial court to exchange for Jiang Chen!"
"Jiang Chen knows the situation in Jiangnan better than we do. With his help, we can definitely take over Jiangnan with minimal losses!" General Chu said in a deep voice.
However, when his men heard this, their expressions varied.
The generals of the Imperial Guard all approved of General Chu's approach!
They trust Jiang Chen!
However, General Chu's subordinates were somewhat unwilling to accept this...
